The base metal is the only metal that can be worked when cold, but lead itself has no use as the only item created from its ingots are plates, which are not used to craft anything.

Lead ingots are metal ingots obtained from smelting galena chunks and nuggets.

Creation

Smelting

One lead ingot is made from 20 galena nuggets.
Unlike most metals, it doesn't need charcoal or coal to reach it's smelting point, instead the player can make use of other burnable fuels like firewood or peat.


Usage

Lead is used as a component of the alloys molybdochalkos and leadsolder. Furthermore, making leaded glass panels requires one lead ingot for every glass pane.

While pure lead ingots are the only ones in the game that can be smithed while cold, pure lead itself has almost no use in smithing. The only item that can be made from lead is a lead plate - requiring 2 ingots - which can only be used in the crafting of an archimedes screw.
